Florida Georgia Line’s New Song “New Truck” Is So Bad, It Gives “Swerve” A Run For Its Money

Hey everyone, meet Nicholas.

His tweet sums up Florida Georgia Line‘s new song perfectly.

Here’s what they said in a press release…

“With ‘New Truck’ we were like, ‘Man, this feels good. I just want to ride around in my truck, listen to this, and have a song to jam to,’” Tyler Hubbard said. “When any of our buddies get a new truck now, we can send it to them and say, ‘Yo, bump this in the truck!’”

Or, I don’t know, just listen to any song that’s good in your truck without having to listen to a song to remind you that you did in fact, just get a new truck.

Brian Kelley added that “It feels really different and fresh. It’s got a fun innocence about it too.”

These guys have to be trolling, right? It feels different and fresh? Innocence? I had my headphones on while listening to it, and apparently the look on my face was cause for concern as my wife asked “Is everything OK?” No, not everything is OK. Have you seen how 2021 kicked off? And now I have to listen to this?

It’s a dumpster fire right out of the “Swerve” (the song that made brains liquify out of ears) playbook.

Sean gets it.

And, if you think it’s just us saying how bad this is, just look at their top Instagram comments.

“We need some more Anything Goes kinda music or Here’s to the Good Times. This is terrible.”

“Been a fan since 2011 and this is terrible yall. Take some tips from Morgan Wallen and his new double album.”

“Come on man this song isn’t country at all”

“This is the worst FGL song I have ever heard…”

“What is this guys.”

Here, if you really have to punish yourself.

Lyrics (not joking)

I got a new truck (Yup), I got a new ride (Woah)
I got it souped-up (Yup), I like it too high (Skrrt)
I got a new truck (Yup), I got a new ride (Woah)
Shawty wanna ride shotty when I roll by (Yup)
I got a new truck

Shawty, get up out the way (Oh yeah)
I got a new truck
Shawty, get up out the way (It feels good, baby)
Yeah

Got some alligator skin on my Silverado interior
And TV’s on the headrest
Made for tearin’ up the woods, bunch of horses in the hood
Straight props, pretty good for a redneck
Dang straight, that’s my name on them papers
Deuces up, see you later (Skrrt)

I got a new truck (Yup), I got a new ride (Woah)
I got it souped-up (Yup), I like it too high (Skrrt)
I got a new truck (Yup), I got a new ride (Woah)
Shawty wanna ride shotty when I roll by (Yup)
I got a new truck

Shawty, get up out the way (Oh yeah)
I got a new truck
Shawty, get up out the way (It feels good, baby)
Hey

Cashed out on a brand new whip
I did not go to a dealership (Nope)
Check out the cowboy drip (Damn)
Peanut butter leather kangaroo hide grip
Black chaps with a holster on my hip
If you blowin’ smoke, like tobacco, I’ma dip
I been feelin’ real country and western (Yeehaw)
Shots fired, anybody wanna test her?

I got a new truck (Yup), I got a new ride (Woah)
I got it souped-up (Yup), I like it too high (Skrrt)
I got a new truck (Yup), I got a new ride (Woah)
Shawty wanna ride shotty when I roll by (Yup)
I got a new truck

Shawty, get up out the way (Oh yeah)
I got a new truck
Shawty, get up out the way (Yeah)

Still got the blue truck, the one that I been had
But now it’s a farm truck, it’s still got a dent in the back
So I hit up ol’ Musk, said I need a tough truck
Yeah, electric, all-wheel drive, the kind you can plug up

I got a new truck (Yup), I got a new ride (Woah)
I got it souped-up (Yup), I like it too high (Skrrt)
I got a new truck (Yup), I got a new ride (Woah)
Shawty wanna ride shotty when I roll by (Yup)
I got a new truck

Shawty, get up out the way (Oh yeah)
I got a new truck
I got a new truck
